What Our Editors Thought
“Light-bodied and assertive, with a noted bitterness that keeps things moving. Hoppy, but not to the point of being overly distracting, allowing subtle caramel and toffee notes to appear beneath the copper-toned malt base.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Floral and citrus hop aromas sit on top of caramel malt notes. Citrus and pine hop flavors with light pome fruit notes. Light and airy on the palate. Sweeter malt-focused finish with a touch of bitterness that develops after the sip.”
What the Brewers Say
“No gimmicks, no haze, no pastry. Just a damn good amber.”
